Unlike acetals, aminals have been slightly underexplored in dynamic covalent chemistry due to their inherent instability.[1] In addition, stable aminals from primary amines are rare since they exist in solution in equilibrium with other species, Figure 1a. We have recently described the formation of stable and dynamic aminals[2] that represents, to the best of our knowledge, the first example from primary amines and carbonyl compounds Furthermore, inspired by the preparation of macrocycles through a templated reaction[3], we have reported the preparation of stable [2+2] macrocycles by aminal bonds formation between aromatic dialdehydes and bis(1,3)-diamines based in in 3,3’-diaminopivalic compounds,[4] Figure 1b. Macrocycles have been characterized by NMR and MS, showing that, despite the large number of possibilities within the corresponding dynamic equilibrium, a single [2+2] macrocycle is mainly formed, without requiring the presence of any template. These macrocycles keep a dynamic behaviour and a surprising water stability, opening the door to be applied in new stimuli-responsive materials for biomedical applications. https://hdl.handle.net/10630/24570 Compuestos macrocíclicos Química heterocíclica Spontaneous [2+2] macrocyclization trhough dynamic covalent aminal bonds
